Aidan had his first taste of "solid" food on Saturday. We obviously don't have to worry about this kid's appetite-- this is Aidan's "I want more" face. You'll get this face when he is "presented the boob" or food (his or yours) is anywhere within arms reach. Sometimes he makes this face when he wants to be picked up by me or Paul. It's hilarious.
The signs that your baby are ready for solid foods include sitting up on his own (check), interest in what you're eating (double check) and not being totally satisfied after nursing (um, kinda.) Aidan was ready three weeks ago according to what you read, but we opted to wait after his six month appointment with baby doc to get some tips on how to introduce solids.
Or, maybe he was just reveling in the fact that he now uses a high chair positioned at the head of table?
So, rice cereal has been a success. Next installment-- applesauce. Yum!
